Initiative for Open Citations (IO4C)
• „The present scholarly communication system inadequately exposes
the knowledge networks that already exist within our literature.
Citation data are not usually freely available to access, they are
often subject to inconsistent, hard-to-parse licenses, and they are
usually not machine-readable.“

Open Researcher and Contributor ID
• Idea started around 2010
• Researcher ID-System was bought (from Thomson Reuters/Clarivate)
and is now Open Source: https://github.com/ORCID
• Started with loans mainly from publishers:
https://orcid.org/about/community/sponsors
• Now Membership-Model. SNSF pays 5000$ a year
• 700+ members in Total. Other institutional members in Switzerland:
• UniBE, UniL, UniSG, UZH, ETHZ, EPFL

Organization ID Open Registry
21.11.2017 46
• Crossref, Datacite and ORCID formed an Organization Identifier
Working Group
• Main recommendations:
• (1) an open, independent organization identifier Registry with capabilities for
organizations to manage their own record,
• (2) seeded with and using open data,
• (3) an independent governance structure, and
• (4) a start-up phase inside a non-profit host organization providing technical
development, operations and other support.
